We stayed here prior to and after returning from our cruise in Ravenna. The staff was very accommodating, allowing us to check in early and calling a taxi to the airport for us. The breakfast had many options, and the AIR CONDITIONING was amazing.

Keeping cover in Bologna.

Great little hotel not far from train station and easily walkable to main historical area. Some nice little restaurants nearby as well. Staff were friendly and helpful as they could! Good for mid budget. The portico’s also saved me from the rain!

Hotel a 5 minuti dalla stazione in piena via indipendenza per cui in pieno centro comodissimo per spostarsi a piedi. Camere pulite, calde , personale molto gentile e zelante, colazione molto varia declinata sul gusto italiano per cui predominante la parte dolce. Hotel perfetto per un viaggio a Bologna. Lo consiglio senza dubbi.

Small, old, noisy and expensive.

Extremely expensive (due to fair) and rooms were small and old. Very noisy from the staircase and people flushing the toilets. Breakfast very poor.
